\"AlexHey there, welcome to Great Tech Tips! I\u2019m Alex David, the founder and owner of this site. I started Great Tech Tips because I found the troubleshooting guides available online were low quality, incomplete and often just plain wrong<\/span>.<\/p>\n

My friends and family call me every time they need help troubleshooting their tech. Why do they call me? Well, I’ve spent 15 years working in tech. I know how to fix computers, phones, printers, streaming services, TVs and routers when they aren’t working.<\/p>\n

I figured more people need their own Alex to call<\/span>. So, I started writing out my troubleshooting advice and putting it all online. A few hundred articles later, and here we are!<\/p>\n

When I write guides, I write them like one of my family members or friends reached out to me directly. I write them like we’re not in the same room, but over the phone, and I need to be extra precise with how I describe what to do. And since technology moves quickly, I carefully update my guides so they’re constantly up to date based on new technology, consumer trends and reader suggestions.<\/p>\n

My mission<\/h2>\n

Great Tech Tips seeks to help everyone, especially non-technical people, solve their troubleshooting challenges in the fastest and easiest way possible. I want this website to be a technical and trusted resource to help you quickly fix your tech challenges and get back to living.<\/p>\n

Editorial guidelines<\/h2>\n

All content on this website is professionally written, edited and fact checked to ensure the information is clear, holistic, concise and accurate.<\/p>\n

At the end of every article, I ask if the guide was helpful and how it can be improved. I use these user ratings as one of the primary indicators to understand if I’m succeeding in my mission.<\/p>\n

If you ever have suggestions for how I can improve an article or section of the website, please send me an email directly to alex@greattechtips.com<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Thanks for reading!
